You do look scared-like, too, just as if you'd seen a ghost." "I've seen worse! I've seen the devil!" Following a series of documented accounts of appearances at Aldershot, Colchester and Lincoln, in the 1870s Spring-Heeled Jack returned to the focus of the public's attention as a folk hero and was reimagined in this 48-part serial story. The shadowy figure of Spring-Heeled Jack protects two vulnerable women and protects the interests of Ralph Ashton against the misdeeds of his iniquitous relative Sir Roland Ashton and a cast of villainous characters who spread their treachery across 18th century London and beyond. First published in 1886, this edition includes illustrations from the original publications and a new introduction by J.S. Mackley.
